We have two new classes of 7th Grade F.C.S. (Family & Consumer Science) for the second semester. 41 new students to learn their names! Today we learned about Food and Kitchen Safety. The students acted out skits, that they wrote, on unsafe kitchen and food safety habits. The skits included: having a cat on the table while eating, finding a band-aid in their meal, to a microwave exploding or starting on fire due to improper usage. "They were very creative!" said Mrs. Schmitt

There are 20 students in Mrs. Schmitt's Advanced Foods Class! We are finishing a Beverage unit where the students learned about coffee, tea, and other drinks. They made homemade hot chocolate mix (Mrs. Schmitt's mom's recipe), hot cocoa "bombs" that are a current food craze and prepared smoothies for a contest.

Advanced Foods Class had a Smoothie contest. They had to use milk or yogurt and fresh or frozen fruit. They were judged on nutrition, taste/flavor, unique ingredient combination, and appearance/ presentation. Thank you to our three judges: Mrs. Maas, Mrs. Popken, and Mr. Manson. (Mr. Manson does so much every day and he covered in the office, so the students took in a cart with the smoothies and rubric for judging.) A representative from each lab group also explained to the judges about their ingredients and answered any questions. Winners: 1st place Peach, 2nd place Raspberry Mango Sunrise, and 3rd place was Blueberry Crumble. Thank you to the judges for making time for our amazing students.

The first graders utilized time with Mrs. Throndson in the innovation lab to plan, design, and build a way to make their Valentine hearts waterproof. Through patience and discovery, it was found that either aluminum foil or plastic wrap were the two best options!

Since the school has an investment in our baseball diamond at Mikkelson Park, I thought you may want to hear some positive news. At this past Saturday night's IHSBCA annual awards banquet in Cedar Rapids, our ballpark was honored as "Diamond of the Year." For context, New Hampton received the award while in competition with ballparks like 3A Independence's new approx. 2+ million all-turf field and 4A Cedar Falls' newly renovated approx. quarter-of-a-million-dollars facility. In total, New Hampton was amongst the top 2 vote-getters of every single high school ballpark in the entire state of Iowa, regardless of class size. A lot of people have contributed to this honor in a lot of different ways over the course of a lot of years. It's pretty dang special recognition for little ol' New Hampton from coaches & umpires in literally every corner of the state. GO CHICKASAWS!
